DHARMAKSHETRA - A TEERTH STHAN
As per the Divine Directions, Dharmakshetra has to become a Teerth Sthan. It is an idea given by the Avatar almost two years ago. This is entirely the Avatar's wish. A Teerth means a Divine Spark. A Teerth Sthan is a place which is not only holy but from where Divine Vibrations constantly emanate. These holy vibrations touch the soul of the individual who visits it and thereby the individual or the jiva gets a kind of satisfaction on visiting such a place since Divine Spark of Vibrations touch the individual soul and raises his or her level of AWARENESS. In other words a Teerth Sthan is filled with Divine Vibrations. In the case of Dharmakshetra, it is already a Holy Place since it is Bhagawan Baba's Abode. It is Baba's wish that this place should be all the more charged by powerful vibrations. The central place from where these Training Activities for imparting Training in Sri Sathya Sai Educare Programme are carried out is Satya Deep. There are specific rules and regulations, which are to be strictly observed. Any sincere Sadhak would be allowed to participate in this Divine and Noble endeavour provided he or she is willing to strictly abide by the rules and regulations and observe the discipline in totality. Let us all pray that we become Humble Instruments in the Divine Mission and help in making Bhagawan's Omnipresence felt at Dharmakshetra, just as one feels after entering a Teerth Sthan.
